Christian Life Week Camps - Yeppoon

Subsidies

Church subsidy

Some churches have registered with LYQ to obtain a code to provide subsidy to their young people. Please chat to your pastor/youth leader about a subsidy code and amount. If you work for a church and would like to create a subsidy to help young people attend camp, contact us on 3511 4080 or office@lyq.org.au. If you have a code from your church or youth group, please enter this into your booking when prompted. IMPORTANT: Codes cannot be applied after registration process is complete (retrospectively).

Payment Plan

We are more than happy to help make coming to camp a reality. Please contact us to talk about your personal situation and organise a payment plan. To secure your booking, we do ask that an initial 10 percent deposit is made at the time of booking.

To apply for a Payment Plan, please click the registration button above, and when booking your child in, tick the ‘Apply for external funding’ option and select ‘Payment Plan Application’ from the drop down menu. You can then access the form link from the ‘Bookings’ section in your profile.

Scholarships, Grants and Discounts

IMPORTANT: Please note for this camp, only one scholarship (external funder) can be applied per cart. If you are using LWQ and Buchholz Funding for your children, please create two carts so that the external funding option is successful. Thank you.

LWQ Scholarship Application

Mark Grieshaber Legacy Fund

Available to siblings living in the same household for events in the same Holiday Season (Winter, Spring, or Summer Seasons)| $60 per camper | If your family qualifies, the discount will automatically apply at checkout.

In 2018 we were blessed to receive a generous bequest from Mark Grieshaber. Mark (Greezy) Grieshaber was an active part of the Lutheran Youth of Queensland community for over three decades until his death in late 2017. Mark involvement started as a participant at our events but mostly he was involved as a volunteer leader for our holiday camps, particularly serving as our camp bus driver. Mark’s passion to support young people meant he often attended multiple events every year and although Mark’s involvement goes beyond our archived records we know he attended more than 130 different events! Those of us who were blessed to serve alongside Mark will remember his selfless leadership and care for others, and his passionate worship singing!

In consultation with Mark’s family we’re thrilled to be able to use Mark’s generous legacy to offer a $60 sibling discount for our holiday camps. Mark had a deep passion for youth ministry and dedicated many voluntary hours to leading on camp and transporting campers to, from and during camp. It is therefore fitting that we use his generous gift to offer a sibling discount that effectively gives families with multiple campers free bus transport to and from camp.

Commitment to Child Safety

Lutheran Youth of Queensland is committed to child safety and our practices are guided by the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations and Queensland’s Eight Mandatory Requirements. We have zero tolerance for child abuse, and all allegations and safety concerns are taken seriously and responded to according to our policies and procedures. This includes a child centered approach to responding to incidents and allegations, and the reporting of concerns, not matter how small, to the relevant authorities. We ask that you support us in this by highlighting ways that we can improve our practice and by reporting any concerns you might have to the relevant authorities.
